Image
Trisha Paytas revealed in a video that she thinks she has breast implant illness.   I’ve watched Trisha for a long time and I remember the slew of videos they did at the time detailing the implant surgeries.   Paytas has been very public over the last 10 years about her plastic surgery experiences and has received cosmetic surgeries such as liposuction, brazilian butt lift (BBL) and two breast augmentations including a slew of non surgery cosmetic enhancements.   Her Symptoms It’s been five years since her last breast augmentation and Trisha says that she’s now experiencing symptoms such as weakness and fatigue.   In her words, she claims to have “started feeling like I was poisoned.”    She also mentioned that it felt as if she couldn’t breathe at times.

Breast Implant Illness: Signs and Symptoms

Image
Breast implants are made with a cocktail of dangerous, toxic chemicals. Plastic surgeons gloss over the risks and adverse outcomes associated with breast implants. Some women opt for saline implants thinking that they are safer than silicone implants. The truth is that both saline and silicone implants contain silicone and a slew of other toxic ingredients. Even though the saline implant is filled with sterile saltwater solution, the outer shell of saline implants contain silicone. The silicone will leak overtime with or without rupture. These are the ingredients that are typically in breast implant devices: Methyl ethyl ketone (neurotoxin), cyclohexanone (neurotoxin), isopropyl alcohol, denatured alcohol, acetone (neurotoxin), urethane, polyvinyl chloride (neurotoxin), amine, toluene (carcinogen, neurotoxin), dichloromethane (carcinogen), chloromethane, ethyl acetate (neurotoxin), silicone, sodium fluoride, lead based solder, formaldehyde, talcum powder, oakite (cleaning solvent), M...

Other women opt for breast implants while undergoing plastic surgery. The breast implant craze began in the nineties at a time where the long-term effects of breast implants were largely unknown and never researched. At current, there still are no long-term studies that have provided knowledge concerning the long-term effects of breast implants. Plastic surgeons performing these surgical procedures have always touted cosmetic procedures such as breast implant surgery as relatively safe and non-harmful. The two options given to women for receiving implants are silicone a...
